Reply to TIL that passenger jet engines produce most of their thrust from fan at the front, not from the jet exhaust, and that this is called a high-bypass engine. by Rilot
Well, yeah, where did you think the thrust was being generated? They're not shooting flames out the back so, a priori, the reaction thrust has to be low to none. I think I'm more surprised that the reaction thrust is as high as 1/4 of the total thrust. I always imagined it was basically a turboprop but the primary fan helped the compressors out a bit but I guess that's not quite right.
